Roles of tumor suppressors in regulating tumor-associated inflammation. [PDF]
, 2014 Loss or silencing of tumor suppressors (TSs) promotes neoplastic transformation and malignant progression. To date, most work on TS has focused on their cell autonomous effects.

NF2/merlin in hereditary neurofibromatosis 2 versus cancer: biologic mechanisms and clinical associations. [PDF]
, 2013 Inactivating germline mutations in the tumor suppressor gene NF2 cause the hereditary syndrome neurofibromatosis 2, which is characterized by the development of neoplasms of the nervous system, most notably bilateral vestibular schwannoma.

Neoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2019 Iroquois homeobox 1 (IRX1) belongs to the Iroquois homeobox family known to play an important role during embryonic development. Interestingly, however, recent studies have suggested that IRX1 also acts as a tumor suppressor.

Involvement of MicroRNA Families in Cancer [PDF]
, 2011 Collecting representative sets of cancer microRNAs (miRs) from the literature we show that their corresponding families are enriched in sets of highly interacting miR families.

CREB targets define the gene expression signature of malignancies having reduced levels of the tumor suppressor tristetraprolin. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The RNA-binding protein Tristetraprolin (TTP, ZFP36) functions as a tumor suppressor that impairs the development and disables the maintenance of MYC-driven lymphoma.

The prognostic effect of PTEN expression status in colorectal cancer development and evaluation of factors affecting it: MiR-21 and promoter methylation [PDF]
, 2016 Background: PTEN is a tumor suppressor gene which is involved in cellular proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Loss or down-regulation of PTEN plays an important role in human cancers development.

Histology and histopathology, 2008 Loss of heterozygosity and chromosomal rearrangement of the WWOX gene, which is located at 16q23.3-24.1, have been detected in ovarian, breast, hepatocellular, and prostate carcinomas and in other neoplasias. This gene, which spans the common chromosomal fragile site 16D, contains 9 exons and encodes a 46 kDa WWOX protein that contains 414 amino acids.

Expression of WW Domain-Containing Oxidoreductase WOX1 in Human Nervous System Tumors
Analytical Cellular Pathology, 2013 Background and ObjectiveS: We aimed to evaluate the expression levels of the tumor suppressor WOX1 in nervous system tumors and its co-expression with p53 and neurofibromatosis type 2/merlin (NF2) tumor suppressor gene products.

Haploinsufficiency of the ESCRT Component HD-PTP Predisposes to Cancer
Cell Reports, 2016 Endosomal sorting complexes required for transport (ESCRT) drive cell surface receptor degradation resulting in attenuation of oncogenic signaling and pointing to a tumor suppressor function.

The Nefarious Nexus of Noncoding RNAs in Cancer [PDF]
, 2018 The past decade has witnessed enormous progress, which has seen the noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) turn from the so called dark matter RNA to critical functional molecules, influencing most physiological processes in development and disease contexts.
